The Happy Tourist

Sympathy and tolerance, acquisitions of great price, are the reward of your journeying. Having mixed much with your fellow men, you view mankind from a new angle and have gained the charitable outlook that only comes with seeing the world. And, as you grow older, you will be ever better company for yourself, having remembered, what so many of us forget, that, to have pleasant memories then, we must contrive for them now. At any rate, there is small risk of you becoming that miserable thing, a disappointed man, nor will it ever be said of you, as it was of one who wasted his life: "his days should have been a rosary of priceless pearls, and he let them slip through his fingers like beads of common glass".

The Happy Traveller
Revd. Frank Tatchell, 1923

Vamos acreditar que sim. Afinal foram so tres semanitas.
